    Vice President JD Vance announces that the federal government is postponing more than $1 billion in Medicaid refunds to California, citing the state’s failure to combat systemic fraud.


    “We are announcing that the federal government is postponing $1.3 billion in Medicaid reimbursements from the state of California.” “And the simple reason is because the state of California has not taken fraud very seriously.”

      So Texas and Florida Next? The top 4 fraud states are no shocker – California, Florida, Texas & New York in total dollars while per capita complaints the top 4 are Florida, Georgia, Nevada & Delaware.

      So the government is going to defraud hundreds of thousands of people of their health care? Also, WTF was that?

      This is predictable. The Right wants to make any and all Left leaning states unattractive so they either vote them Right, or people leave the states for Red ones. But what gets me is that its working. Idk why after that last election but im still so surprised at how gullible soooo many are in this country. Our collective critical thinking skills are in the dirty. Its so sad to see.

      They are tearing down their own country lol. Like setting a room alight in an attempt to assert ownership over the whole house.

      How about Rick Scott and Florida Medicare fraud? It costs billions and was the largest Medicare settlement in history and no doubt the settlement was a small fraction

      I know. Let’s transfer it into Trump’s personal account for safe keeping

      California can perhaps withheld federal tax citing inconsistencies in the defense spending?

      They think they are penalizing democrats while shockingly California also has republicans. With any luck they will shoot themselves in both feet with both barrels.

      I hope these people are right in their purported faith so they are punished in hellfire for eternity

      My mom is on medicaid and in a home so if they mess with her they can go F themselves.

      Sooo CA should just suspend tax payments to the Federal Government. Equally illegal as what Vance is proposing and is completely non enforceable. RIP United States of America. Coincidentally, most empires collapse at right around the 250 year mark which is coming up for the US.

      Would be funny if the state or California withheld federal taxes citing failure to combat systemic fraud and corruption by officials.

      I guarantee the fed would hurt very quick

      While providing ZERO FUCKING PROOF of said fraud. Also worth mentioning toning that a Republican senator was CEO of a company busted committing the worst Medicaid/Medicare fraud EVER.

      I’m old enough to remember when Rick Scott stole $32b from Medicare.

      Has he met Ron DeSantis, governor of florida?? Or Rick Scott, former governor of…
      Florida. Dude pled the fifth 75 times during the federal investigation of his companies Medicaid fraud?

      Trump pardoned at least 15 people convicted of defrauding taxpayers 3 billion with NO restitution required.
